Lyra lounge chair by Andreas Engesvik for Fogia

**Dezeen Showroom: **made for Swedish brand Fogia, Andreas Engesvik set out to combine the comforts of an easy chair with uncompromising aesthetics in the Lyra lounge Chair.

The Lyra lounge chair combines the graphic lines of a metal frame with the soft, flexible shapes of ample cushioning.

The Lyra lounge chair is meant to deliver supreme comfort without compromising on aesthetics

Between the two is a canvas seat – a material that Engesvik chose for its natural feel and that has the added benefit of being light, so the chair is easy to move despite its size.

Fogia describes the comfort of Lyra as being similar to sinking into a pile of pillows and says the chair is destined to become a favourite in whatever room it is placed.

Its metal legs are available in a selection of four neutral RAL colours

"Lyra Lounge is a good example of what Fogia always tries to achieve – the mix of non-compromise in design, materials, and comfort – that gives our customers a product that they can love and pass on for generations to come," said Fogia CEO Marcus Huber.

Lyra can be ordered with a matching footstool and upholstered in either textile or leather. Its base combines a standard canvas hue with a choice of neutral RAL colours for the legs.

Velar sofa by Andreas Engesvik for Fogia

Dezeen Showroom: Andreas Engesvik has designed the Velar sofa for Fogia, giving it a curved high back to create the feeling of sitting up in bed.

Velar is a sofa with a simple but distinctive silhouette, defined by the upswept curve of its back and its open, arm-free sides.

The Velar sofa has a curved high backrest

With its low-slung position and generous 2.5-seater proportions, Velar offers an informal seating option in both private and public settings.

"You can naturally reach for objects like glasses, books or phones from side tables or have space for children to perch," said Engesvik.

"People naturally gravitate towards Velar. It has a distinctly welcoming, relaxing atmosphere."

The arm-free sides help to create a relaxed, open atmosphere

Velar is made to order in Fogia's factory in Gdansk, Poland, and is customisable with a variety of colour and upholstery options.

The brand prides itself on using quality materials, and all its leathers, feathers and down are byproducts from other industries.
